Computer room,
A place you and me know,
A place for men like us to go,
we look for love, we dont want pain,
we have felt the love that was in vain,
she was so perfect, her words shattered our worlds,
twisted our hearts, she was that girl,
endless nights on ICQ, chatting to the girl like you.

Dreamland arrives in the lonely mind,
dreaming of a woman, one of a kind.
Pixles of passion, smiles of lust,
are you the woman who I can trust.

keyboards click, eyes twitch,
looking for that girl to hitch.
love thats true, love thats strong
too much to ask or am I wrong?

Virtual love so far away,
yes we too will have our day,
the sea of distance wont crush my love,
for love travels like a dove,
Over mountains high, fields so green,
love you in a way never seen.

Take me for granted, treat me bad,
I am the one who never feels sad,
A smile, a kiss from your lips,
makes me forget those cutting quips.

Love from a man is pain,
words we say,we never explain,
sometimes they hurt, and often they do,
for love from a man is one that is true....

...back from the USA....

Wow Slashed Soul -- what a heart felt
poem and well thought out!

What does Back from the USA mean
in your signature?

I still advocate, though, watch your heart
on the net, it can be a very painful experience, many people out there, are not
what they seem.

[G]  I like this one.  I've been where you are but I've learned to keep my heart at bay when it comes to meeting women on the net.  They say that the meaning that is received in communication fits the following equation:

3% is in the words you say

70% is in the way you say them

and 27% is in body language

Or maybe I've got the last two reversed... I dunno... anyways... you're missing a LOT by simply reading text... no body language at all unless you're using a video cam... and unless you're talking on the phone or something you can't hear HOW they say something... hell... you might even miss part of what was said... how many times do you delete your message before it is sent?

Anyways... not against meeting someone online... I just step VERY softly until I've met them face-2-face.  

Falling in love on-line, to me, seems a lot like putting a down payment on a car when I've only seen the interior.  And I DO speak from experience... so don't say it's just because I've never been there before. =)

I still like the poem though, it flows very nicely and the message is cool. =)  Keep writing.< !signature-->

 "The storm rises up when the shadows descend
every beat of my heart every day without end
I will stand like a rock I will bend till I break
till theres no more to give if thats what it takes
I will risk everything I will fight I will bleed
I will lay down my life if thats what you need
every second I live thats the promise I make"

I have no idea who wrote this... tell me if you know.  =)
